A vehicle seat slide includes a fixed section, a mobile section, a memory shoe sliding along the fixed section and defining a memorized position of the mobile section, a first actuator which simultaneously unlocks the slide and fastens the shoe to the mobile section, and a second actuator which unlocks only the slide. The second actuator operates a fastener device of the shoe via a cable.

Slide for vehicle seat, and seat including such slide

This concerns a vehicle seat including a back pivoting mounted on a seat part by means of a locking mechanism able to be activated by a user to unlock the seat back, the seat comprising additionally an inertia safety device adapted to drive the locking mechanism into its locked position in the event of the vehicle being subjected to an impact. This safety device includes an input component which is driven by the pivoting of the seat back and which is connected to the locking mechanism by means of an inertia clutch.

Vehicle seat fitted with a locking mechanism for inclining the seat back, and apparatus for such a seat

This concerns a slide rail for a vehicle seat, comprising a fixed section, a mobile section sliding on the section, and a catch movable vertically between a locked position and an unlocked position allowing the mobile section to slide. The catch is controlled by a rigid rod in the shape of a crankshaft which pivots on the mobile section and which slides in an inclined groove integral with a slider which is movable transversally on the mobile section.

Slide rail for vehicle seat and seat comprising such a slide rail

The slide includes a fixed section and a movable section sliding in the fixed section. An edge of the fixed section, equipped with a row of notches, is located in the direct vicinity of a sidewall of the movable section. A lock, movable crosswise to the sliding direction, is equipped with teeth guided in the cutouts made in the wall and mating with the notches to lock the slide. The wall includes a stop, such as a folded portion, located opposite the edge. The dimensions and the material of the teeth are determined so that when a sliding force exceeding a predetermined value is applied, the teeth deform by deflecting parallel to the folded portion and their ends are then located opposite the folded portion preventing the lock from unlocking.
